Right now, this is the million-dollar question. I'm afraid we already know the answer. Most won't. This leaves me asking these three questions:

- Has there been enough education about legal alternatives?
- Is iTunes a substitute for file-sharing just because it's legal?
- Are the incentives to convert to a legal service properly aligned?

In short, my thoughts are that there needs to be more education, that single paid downloads aren't attractive enough of a substitute nor should they be considered one, and the incentives to convert aren't aligned. **Share your thoughts below**.
